Hi ! I m Rogue. I am a long-haired, 80 lb., black/tan, male, 2-year-old, neutered, German Shepherd/Akita mix. I have the Akita face and legs and the German Shepherd body and temperament. Dad says I look like a huggy bear. He says I prance around the yard like a deer. Hey Im quick on my feet, ya know? I have only had my foster humans for a couple of days, but I liked the car ride home, ate my food politely, didnt lift my leg and grudgingly accepted my bedtime crate. My foster GSD bro and sis are fun, we get along well. Dad says I am strong like bull and need to improve my leash manners. Duuh. Seriously, Rogue is an adorable, very sweet, strong, young male who needs the proverbial finishing school. He is still young enough to be trained properly. He has been trained some (sit, down), and has been indoors as well. He is head-strong and will require a home with prior big dog experience, along with the time and patience for firm training.

Although donations of all types are needed, our primary need is foster homes for our lovely dogs while they wait for their new family to find them. Fostering is an extremely rewarding experience. Vet care is paid for by our rescue, and we can even provide you with food. All YOU need to add is love and security.

The adoption process starts with the applicant filling out the adoption application. This can happen at any time during the process, before or after having met a GSD that might be the ideal companion. (It's an advantage to have a pre-approved application on file with VGSR. It should be stressed here that being pre-approved does not mean that any potential adopter can select any available dog at will and take that dog home immediately. VGSR will exercise its best judgement as to which GSD will be the best match for that specific adopter based on a number of qualifying criteria. Many GSDs that come to us are matched up with their new people very quickly because their people have been pre-approved.) The applicant then submits the application form with a non-refundable $10.00 processing fee. VGSR reviews the application, then schedules an interview and home visit during which a number of questions are asked and the home is reviewed to be sure there is a contained/safe yard, and to meet the family involved. Once the application is approved, the applicant is asked to submit a $200.00 donation to VGSR, and the adoption is completed.
